The Mets cut Robinson Canó on Monday with nearly $45 million left on his contract, a move that could signal the end of his major league career.
with nearly $45 million remaining on his contract, ending an ill-fated marriage and perhaps signaling the end of his decorated major league career.
The 39-year-old Canó, who sat out last season while serving his second suspension for performance-enhancing drugs, is batting .195 with one home run, three RBIs and a paltry .501 OPS in 43 plate appearances. He has appeared in 12 of 23 games, starting six at second base and five at designated hitter.
Canó has a .302 career batting average with 335 home runs, 1,305 RBIs and an .842 OPS. He has 2,632 hits, including 571 doubles. New York has seven days to trade or release Canó, or send him outright to the minors — an assignment he would have the right to refuse because he has at least three years of major league service.
